The government (save the military) shouldn't be allowed to discriminate, nor should work under government contract; private business should be allowed to do whatever the hell they want... don't like what they do then exercise your 1A right to bitch on social media, or to the news, or form a picket line on public property nearest the business. That's how all of this is supposed to work. No need to cry about civil rights or the like.
I agree with this.
Government should set the example, but not make the requirement.

I get the government not discriminating because they work for everyone in this country, but there is a distinction between what the government is allowed to do vs. what private citizens are allowed to do that is given in the Constitution. It enumerates and protects our rights from infringement by the government first and foremost. Citizens should be free to associate with who they want to associate with but the government is held to a different standard.
